1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:04,839 As a kid growing up, I was always fascinated when in the cartoons and 2 00:00:04,919 --> 00:00:08,000 TV shows I used to watch, there was a character who would make an 3 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:13,759 offer, inevitably to the main character to tell them their future. The concept 4 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:18,600 of knowing what to expect or what decisions I should make now to either achieve 5 00:00:18,719 --> 00:00:23,280 or divert whatever awaits me is a powerful one to a young mind, and 6 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,160 at an age when there is so much still ahead of you a million different 7 00:00:27,199 --> 00:00:32,479 pathways, knowing what to expect feels like it would bring you safety, clarity, 8 00:00:33,039 --> 00:00:37,119 maybe some direction. Inevitably, in these shows, there's always a little 9 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:41,640 bit of awesome sprinkled with a little bit of tragedy in whatever the hero finds 10 00:00:41,679 --> 00:00:46,840 out, and the one doing the fortune telling generally reads their palm or uses 11 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:51,000 some form of tarot cards to see the future. And while these two methods 12 00:00:51,039 --> 00:00:54,560 are in fact still in use today, there are many others throughout the years 13 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:59,479 that perhaps have not survived quite as well. In pre modern times, people 14 00:00:59,479 --> 00:01:03,679 who want to know the future didn't necessarily have access to the so called magical 15 00:01:03,759 --> 00:01:07,879 artifacts like crystal balls or the aforementioned tarot cards, and so would make do 16 00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:11,640 with what they had around them. And what did everyone have at hand? 17 00:01:11,719 --> 00:01:17,400 More often than not, well, that's right, food and well. Many 18 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:22,480 of these old food based fortunes were lighthearted party games mainly played around Halloween time. 19 00:01:23,079 --> 00:01:26,359 Some of them were deadly serious and their results were taken as the gospel 20 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,640 truth. And at the time all you needed to tell the future was a 21 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:41,079 full pantry and a little imagination. These are the bizarre but true stories from 22 00:01:41,159 --> 00:01:46,319 history that in some way involved food. I'm Nick Charlie Key, and this 23 00:01:47,159 --> 00:02:00,519 is the fantastic history of food. One of today's spot is Athletic Greens. 24 00:02:00,879 --> 00:02:05,760 So what is Athletic Greens.

It might 43 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,800 sound strange to us now, but for a long time, and in fact 44 00:03:44,879 --> 00:03:50,000 still in some parts of Massachusetts, the night before Halloween was known as Cabbage 45 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,360 Night. The origin of this seems to stem from an old Scottish tradition that 46 00:03:53,479 --> 00:03:58,280 made its way to the Americas as more and more people settled there. It 47 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,280 seemed to take off especially well in a small town in Massachusetts named Framingham, 48 00:04:02,319 --> 00:04:05,800 as in this particular town there happened to be rather a lot of Dutch immigrants 49 00:04:05,879 --> 00:04:10,360 who had settled in the area. Now that Dutch, as many of you 50 00:04:10,479 --> 00:04:14,759 may know, are rather large fans of cabbage, and in fact can even 51 00:04:14,759 --> 00:04:18,920 claim the title of having invented coleslaw, and this meant there was an abundance 52 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:23,600 of cabbages being grown in the fields around the town with which to tell the 53 00:04:23,639 --> 00:04:29,560 future when each year Cabbage Night rolled around. But just what was this old 54 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:34,360 Scottish tradition originally known there as kaling? All About well around Halloween time, 55 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:39,439 it was said that the vale between the real world and the spirit world grew 56 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:46,040 especially thin, and that any sort of magical divination was particularly potent. Young 57 00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:49,560 unmarried girls and women were desperate to know who it was that they were going 58 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:54,800 to marry, and what better way to find out than by getting a leafy 59 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,800 green vegetable to tell you. Now, each year, the young girls would 60 00:04:58,879 --> 00:05:01,720 sneak out of town into the fields of the local farmers, and when they 61 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:06,759 arrived, they would ritually blindfold one another and then walk slowly into the kale 62 00:05:06,759 --> 00:05:12,560 fields. At some point they would stop, bend down, feel around a 63 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,000 bit for a stalk of kale nearby to them, and once they had found 64 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,879 one, they would gently pull the entire stalk out of the ground, roots 65 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,439 and all, and then run home with them safely tucked in a bag or 66 00:05:23,519 --> 00:05:28,120 under the arm. Once they were home, those with their blindfolds on were 67 00:05:28,199 --> 00:05:31,079 unbandaged, and their kale was laid on the table for all to see and 68 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,000 inspect. Now, the size, the shape, and the appearance of the 69 00:05:35,079 --> 00:05:40,240 stork on the table gave clues as to who the soon to be love interest 70 00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:45,319 may be. In the book A Halloween Wraith by William Black, he describes 71 00:05:45,399 --> 00:05:49,800 some signs of how to interpret the kale before you. He says, maybe 72 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:54,720 you would rather not have pulled a stork that was tall and straight and strong, 73 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,879 for that may mean you would be wed to that boy alistair. Now, 74 00:05:58,959 --> 00:06:02,000 maybe you would find that you had pulled up a withered old stump with 75 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,839 a lot of earth at the root, for that would mean marrying a decrepit 76 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:11,519 old man with plenty of money in the bank, or maybe rather you would 77 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,079 wish for one that is slim and supple and not so tall, so that 78 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,399 it may represent that boy Johnny Semple with whom you are already in love. 79 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,279 Now, they were, of course, even more possible meanings to judge the 80 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,319 kale. Buy a close white head of leaves meant an old man for a 81 00:06:27,439 --> 00:06:30,920 husband, while an open green head meant a young one. The girls would 82 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:35,439 also taste the stem, and whatever the flavor, sour or sweet, would 83 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:41,800 represent their future husband's disposition. Sometimes the stalks were hung above the door, 84 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,439 and if yours had been hung up third in the row, and then the 85 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,639 third boy to walk through the door had the name John, Well, then 86 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:56,959 that would also be the name of the man you were to marry. Now, 87 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,279 what of the enduring Halloween pranks still in action today is the infamous ding 88 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,800 Dong ditch, and this seemingly got its start around the same time as these 89 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:10,560 kale divinations. You see, once you had determined who you thought the kale 90 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,800 was trying to tell you would be your future husband, you would then take 91 00:07:13,839 --> 00:07:16,439 the big lump of kale, stalk, roots, dirt and all, and 92 00:07:16,639 --> 00:07:21,120 throw it as hard as you could against your future husband's door before running away 93 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:26,920 to safety unseen. This would then let them know that they were in the 94 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,920 running to get married and give them enough time to either prepare themselves or you 95 00:07:31,639 --> 00:07:38,079 run away. But the British Isles and their seeming overabundance of kale, had 96 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:43,439 a few other magical practices based around this leafy green. Some people would hang 97 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,439 kale over their doors at night to ward away evil spirits, or even place 98 00:07:46,519 --> 00:07:51,519 it under their pillows as they slept to induce prophetic dreams. Children who were 99 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:57,600 desperate for a sibling would surreptitiously place a stork of kale outside their parents' bedroom 100 00:07:57,639 --> 00:08:01,199 door in the hopes that this would encourage that sibling into being. But the 101 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,839 Irish, not to be outdone, would make a dish known as colcannon, 102 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:11,800 which consisted of potato, cabbage, onion, and of course kale in it. 103 00:08:11,079 --> 00:08:15,839 They would hide little charms inside the dish, and the people would then 104 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,399 blindly dish up their portion from the larger bowl or pot. Whoever found the 105 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,120 ring charm was destined to marry within the year, but whoever found the thimble 106 00:08:24,199 --> 00:08:31,560 charm would somewhat harshly be considered a spinster forever now. Potentially, as a 107 00:08:31,639 --> 00:08:35,600 last resort for the person who drew the thimble, they could also scoop the 108 00:08:35,759 --> 00:08:39,039 very first and the very last spoonful into a stocking and then hang it over 109 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:43,919 her door. The first unmarried man to walk beneath it the following day would 110 00:08:43,919 --> 00:08:48,240 be destined to be her husband. Must stay with us, as after the 111 00:08:48,279 --> 00:08:52,919 break, we're going to be diving into a whole lot more of a household 112 00:08:52,960 --> 00:09:11,600 fortune telling foodstuffs. This episode is presented by Chemists in the Kitchen by lab 113 00:09:11,879 --> 00:09:16,480 X, a YouTube video series spotlighting the power of chemistry and how science and 114 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:22,600 food can bring people together.

Of all the 123 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:20,240 methods of historic fortune telling practiced with consumable items, the reading of tea leaves 124 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,480 is probably the most famous and the most enduring of them all. The reading 125 00:10:24,519 --> 00:10:28,000 of tea leaves is otherwise known as tassiography, and it originated in the Baltic 126 00:10:28,039 --> 00:10:33,000 and the Slavic nations, who were closely related to the Romani people. But 127 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:37,039 the Romani people, once more commonly known as Gypsies, although that term has 128 00:10:37,039 --> 00:10:43,440 since been deemed unsuitable and potentially offensive, lived a famously nomadic lifestyle. Being 129 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,320 that the tea and the coffee trade routes came right through their usual settlement lands, 130 00:10:46,639 --> 00:10:50,600 they were the catalyst for the spread of tassiography as a practice, and 131 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,679 when it came to the reading of coffee grounds. This practice first originated in 132 00:10:54,720 --> 00:11:00,000 the palaces of the Ottoman Empire in the fifteen hundreds. It wasn't as serious 133 00:11:00,039 --> 00:11:03,240 as a practice there as much as a simple way to pass the time. 134 00:11:03,879 --> 00:11:07,240 The emperor's concubines would spend many boring hours in the harem, and one of 135 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,159 the ways to make the time pass more quickly was to drink their Turkish coffee 136 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,919 and then tell each other's fortunes using the coffee grounds as part of their chatting 137 00:11:15,919 --> 00:11:18,600 and gossip. And when it came to the reading of tea leaves, however, 138 00:11:18,799 --> 00:11:22,279 there were a variety of ways you could go about doing this. One 139 00:11:22,279 --> 00:11:26,840 of the descriptions is as follows. After a cup of tea has been poured 140 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,519 without using a tea strainer, the tea is drunk or poured away. The 141 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,679 cup should then be shaken well and any remaining liquid drained off in a saucer. 142 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,799 The diviner now looks at the pattern of tea leaves in the cup and 143 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:45,120 allows the imagination to play around with the shape suggested by them. They might 144 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,840 look like a letter, a heart shape, or a ring, and these 145 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,919 shapes are then interpreted intuitively or by means of a fairly standard system of symbolism, 146 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,080 such as a snake meaning enmity or falsehood, a spade meaning good fortune 147 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:03,120 through industry, a mountain meaning a journey or hindrance, or a house meaning 148 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,919 change and success. It's also worth noting that in this description, the act 149 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:13,240 of shaking the cup was very much in the minority, as most practitioners would 150 00:12:13,279 --> 00:12:16,679 rather have had you drink the tea, just leaving a small amount of liquid 151 00:12:16,759 --> 00:12:20,440 inside the cup with the tea leaves, and the swirling the cup three times 152 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:33,840 clockwise before emptying the tea leaves into the saucer. Now, there was time, 153 00:12:33,919 --> 00:12:37,240 in fact, in the nineteen twenties and fifties in New York City when 154 00:12:37,279 --> 00:12:41,919 fortune tellers using tea leaves were so conspicuous that they actually fell found with the 155 00:12:41,919 --> 00:12:46,679 morality laws mentioned in a previous episode, they were not allowed to charge for 156 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,519 their services, and in fact, entire sting operations were set up at tea 157 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,559 houses around the city simply to try and catch a fortune teller in the act. 158 00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:00,519 On moving back to the British Isles, in Scotland in particular, we 159 00:13:00,639 --> 00:13:05,600 come upon an old practice using nuts to determine if an upcoming marriage would be 160 00:13:05,639 --> 00:13:09,759 a successful one. In some places, Halloween itself was called nutcrack Night, 161 00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:15,960 or the sacrifice of the nuts. On that day, if a man brought 162 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,919 a woman some walnuts, it meant that he was her true love. But 163 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:24,200 nuts were also used in a different way to tell how a potential relationship may 164 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,399 pan out. The practice itself is incredibly simple, and in fact, the 165 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,919 famous Scottish poet Robbie Burns wrote about it in his poem Halloween, saying, 166 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:37,240 the old goodwife's well hoarded nuts are round and round divided, and many lads 167 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:43,080 and lass's fates are there that night decided. Essentially, what they would do 168 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,519 is that the bride and groom to be would each place a chestnut in a 169 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:52,200 pan and then place that pan over the open fire to roast. The chestnuts 170 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,480 were each given one of the couple's names beforehand, and there was then up 171 00:13:54,480 --> 00:14:00,279 to the fire to see how the named nuts behaved. If both chestnuts stayed 172 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,960 in place, slowly roasting without rolling away, it was taken as a good 173 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,080 omen for a happy marriage. If, however, they crackled, popped and 174 00:14:07,159 --> 00:14:13,039 bounced around, well that was obviously not such a great sign. Now, 175 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,919 some young women would use the fire and the nuts to test out the suitability 176 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,600 of certain partners before committing to one of them. With a particularly interesting ritual, 177 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,039 these women would also give each nut the name of one young lad, 178 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:31,159 and then she would throw those named chestnuts or hazel nuts directly into the fire 179 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,600 itself. If the nut then burst into flame, as opposed to just simply 180 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,799 roasting away slowly, it was a sign that the relationship would be doomed. 181 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,240 Then. The writer Ruth ed Na Kelley wrote of this practice that it had 182 00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:46,639 a dark and a sinister side to it, as it was hard to escape 183 00:14:46,639 --> 00:14:50,879 the imagery of an old time sacrifice to an idol as you watched the nuts 184 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:56,000 turn and writhe in the flames, burning and then growing black. But they 185 00:14:56,039 --> 00:15:00,320 were, however, some more lighthearted games. The young people would play. 186 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,360 One of them, which still exists to this day, although without the connotations 187 00:15:03,399 --> 00:15:09,200 at once came with it. Bobbing for apples had a very similar sister game 188 00:15:09,399 --> 00:15:13,200 that was played as a pagan ritual, and it was called snap apple. 189 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:18,039 The goal of snap apple was still very much to bite and hold an apple 190 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,559 in your mouth without the use of your hands, but rather than having your 191 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:26,279 face splashed with water, this one came with a potentially more damaging consequence. 192 00:15:26,879 --> 00:15:30,519 You see, the apples weren't immersed in water at all, but rather were 193 00:15:30,519 --> 00:15:33,360 attached to the bottom of a stick that was suspended in the air. On 194 00:15:33,399 --> 00:15:37,320 the top of the stick, at the other end from the apple was a 195 00:15:37,399 --> 00:15:41,600 lit candle. Now I'm sure you can imagine why this must have been quite 196 00:15:41,639 --> 00:15:45,559 a dangerous game to play. If you were too violent in your attempt to 197 00:15:45,559 --> 00:15:48,559 bite the apple, or potentially not aggressive enough, you could easily send the 198 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:54,320 stick spinning, splashing your face with burning hot liquid wax from the candle above. 199 00:15:54,200 --> 00:16:00,440 But here's where the game's rules make that outcome almost an inevitability. It's 200 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,799 not just one person trying to bite the apple. It was a few young 201 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,240 women all trying to bite it at once, because the person who could take 202 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,320 the first bite would then be said to be the first of the group to 203 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,759 get married, or, in some circumstances, the one who would end up 204 00:16:12,799 --> 00:16:17,519 having the happiest marriage. So for the girls at the time, the stakes 205 00:16:17,639 --> 00:16:22,279 were high and a little molten candlewax wasn't going to stop them from winning. 206 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:26,440 But snap apple aside, apples in general tended to show up more often than 207 00:16:26,519 --> 00:16:32,000 not amongst the food based traditions of early Halloween. In fact, you may 208 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,320 not be able to look at bobbing for apples the same again once you find 209 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,679 out that the original game was meant to mimic the drowning of women to test 210 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:42,120 if they were witches or not. Apple's connection to Halloween is said to be 211 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:47,759 tied to the colonization efforts of the Romans, who tied their autumn apple festival 212 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,240 to the Celtic Samman Festival, marking the end of the harvest season and the 213 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:56,879 darker days to come. Bobbing for apples was also used as a matchmaking game 214 00:16:56,919 --> 00:17:00,639 in some parts, where apples would be labeled or marked other young men and 215 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,119 woman playing, and then all thrown together into a big tub of water. 216 00:17:03,839 --> 00:17:08,079 The person who ended up biting and catching your apple then clearly stood a very 217 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:12,440 high chance of being your perfect mate, and in what seems to be the 218 00:17:12,559 --> 00:17:18,920 millionth different tradition all focused on marriage and matchmaking, apples could also supposedly tell 219 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:25,480 one's future simply by using their peelings. A person would peel an apple all 220 00:17:25,559 --> 00:17:29,640 in one long strip and then throw that peel over their shoulder and onto the 221 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,680 ground. If that peel stayed unbroken and in one piece, it could be 222 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,160 examined as to which letter it most closely resembled, and this would be the 223 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:42,400 initial of a future love interest. And in an even more bizarre apple related 224 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:47,480 fortune telling method, it was said that you needed to simply stand in front 225 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,240 of a mirror once you were there. All you had to do was shine 226 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,480 a candle in front of you into the mirror and then eat an apple. 227 00:17:55,079 --> 00:18:00,160 Apparently, an image of your future husband would appear over your shoulder. In 228 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,359 a slight variation of this, the apple would be cut into nine pieces beforehand. 229 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:07,240 The person performing the ritual would eat eight of the pieces, and then 230 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:12,440 supposedly the lover would appear in person to the house asking to eat the ninth 231 00:18:12,599 --> 00:18:19,440 piece. So today, if you're inclined to want to discover more about your 232 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,680 own love life, I presented to you multiple ways to peek into the future 233 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,880 to see what it may hold in the way of a loving partner.
